Chapter 67: Advance to the Fifth Round

Chapter 67 advances to the fifth round

Just when Gao Bo was on the side to solve Adam's affairs, the second division game gradually began the second half of the schedule.

The 25th round of the 25th round of the game in Luton Town has been postponed due to the need to make way for some of the teams in the league, while the 26th round of the league has been brought forward to 17 January.

In the 17th round of the league, Luton Town is away to Danington.

The game didn't have much of a wave, and before the end of the first half, Luton took a 2-0 lead thanks to Vardy's goal-grabbing goal in the box and a long-range shot from Danny Drinkwater.

With a two-goal lead in the first half, this is already an early victory for Luton, and the second division has not yet been able to turn the tables with Luton leading by two goals!

In the 63rd minute of the second half, Charlie Austin chested the ball after receiving a cross from the wing of a team-mate, and then opted for a barbed shot to score a world wave to seal the victory for Luton.

The final score was 3-0 in Luton's away win over Daning Harbour, bringing Luton's points to 40 points after the victory!

The Luton fans were very excited to come to the away stadium because the 40 points had already put them in eighth place!

Brentford, who are in seventh place, have 41 points, and Luton are just one point away from qualifying for the promotion play-offs.

The gap was a no-brainer for Luton, who have been in such insane form this season.

The players were also very happy after the victory of the game, and after the final whistle, the players on the bench, including Adam, who had been in the press center recently, also rushed onto the pitch, and despite the fact that it was an away game, the players still celebrated very presumptuously.

Gao Bo was also very happy, but he didn't celebrate much, after the game, he simply shook his fist, and then he walked to the opponent's head coach, and after shaking hands with the opponent, Gao Bo turned and walked into the players' tunnel.

However, Gao Bo's good mood was only reserved for the post-match press conference.

"Coach Gobo, Mark Hughes said in an interview that Adam White is a talent in England and he thinks it would be irresponsible to keep Adam White in the second division!"

"Coach Gao Bo, what do you think Adam White is worth the right amount?"

"Have Manchester City made an offer?"

"How likely is it that Adam will stay until the winter window closes?"

A bunch of questions were thrown up, but they were all rumours about Manchester City and Adam.

Gao Bo's face was unhappy, and he grabbed the microphone.

'This is our post-match press conference with Danington, not City's press room, so you should leave those questions to Mark Hughes.'

"We got 40 league points in this game, and we are one point away from being able to squeeze into the top seven, which is a great achievement for a team that has been deducted 30 points before the start of the season, and if we had not been deducted 30 points, then Luton Town would be almost 20 points ahead of second place!! That's what you should be concerned about. ”

After Gao Bo finished speaking, he dropped the microphone and left.

Roy Saul, who was in the back row of the press room, somehow felt refreshed. As a Luton fan of Luton, she is also very unhappy with the problems of these reporters in the front row, although she and Gao Bo do not deal with each other, but now she is on the same line as Gao Bo.

Although Gao Bo did not answer anything about the transfer rumors, it was difficult for the media.

The next day's news about Luton Town was still a scandal between Adam and Manchester City. The media said that it was very serious, and even fabricated the details of the negotiations between the two sides....

In addition to Adam, in fact, there is no shortage of transfer rumours for several key players in Luton, and now is the time of the winter window, and the news about transfers is the most eye-catching for readers.

In order to avoid the impact of the disturbing transfer rumours on the team, Gao Bo isolated the team from the media, and he banned the team's players from giving interviews to the media without permission.

Outside of Luton's training base, there are more media reporters.

With Luton's team on the rise, they have attracted more and more media attention.

However, at Luton's training ground, there was little disruption to the team's training.

The training of the players is still going on as planned. The team's next game is away to Preston North End.

Preston North End are mid-table in the Championship and they are far from Chelsea. However, Gao Bo did not dare to be careless, after all, the opponent was a team two levels higher than Luton.

"The other side is a Championship team and we are only a team in the second division! In terms of level, the other party is two notches higher than us! On the training ground, Gao Bo was wearing a training uniform and a peaked cap. And his players were around him.

"Don't take the enemy lightly!!" Gao Bo pointed his finger at the door of his head, "I know many of you are still complacent about winning the Chelsea game, if we go away with that idea, I'm sure we'll lose!!" ”

Gao Bo emphasized on the training ground.

Sure enough, at the Deep Valley Stadium, Luton had a pretty difficult start to the game.

Preston launched an onslaught from the start, and at one point the goal of Luton City came close to missing out – and if it hadn't been for Preston striker Brown's shot hitting the crossbar, Luton would have conceded at the start of the game.

Fortunately, after a few minutes of confusion, Luton's formation quickly stabilized, and Preston's attack was gradually pushed into danger by Luton.

In the first half, the two sides were locked in a battle in midfield, with Luton getting a couple of chances to counter-attack directly behind them, but they couldn't find a shot on goal.

The two sides played 0-0 in the first half!

The format of the game in the second half was also anxious, Preston in the first half after a strong attack, gradually found that they pressed too high the consequence of being counterattacked by Luton, so in the second half, Preston did not press too much, they intend to fight patience with Luton in midfield.

Gao Bo was also prepared for such a situation, and in the 65th minute of the game, the game was still anxious on the field, and at this time he called Adam to the side.

The visitors didn't have a large number of Luton fans in the stands and they didn't look too excited due to the scorching situation of the game. But as soon as Adam stood on the sidelines, the Luton fans immediately lit up, standing up and chanting Adam's name.

Thanks to the media, Adam is now Luton's biggest name player, even though he is only a substitute.

'See their right-back?' Gao Bo pointed to a player from Preston on the field, "He is thirty-four years old, go up and find him to break through on this side, have a wider vision, don't be too anxious to pass, pay attention to the position of our striker and midfielder!" After the breakthrough, you can pass the ball in a good position, and don't hesitate when you have the opportunity to shoot!! ”

Adam nodded frequently, and Gao Bo patted him on the shoulder.

Luton made a substitution, with Adam coming on for left wing-back Lewis Emmanuel.

It was Luton Town who were the first to strengthen their attack, and it's hard to imagine a Second Division side facing off against a Championship side.

After the substitution, Luton's attack really added a lot of vitality.

Preston right-back Hart was broken through by Adam and the 34-year-old couldn't get up to the rhythm of a young Adam.

After breaking through from the outside, Adam pressed the ball into the box.

Jamie Vardy and Charlie Austin both pressed forward in the box, bringing Preston North End to the small spot, while there was a big gap in the arc of the box.

Adam crosses the ball to the area.

It was N'Golo Kante who cut in and shot into this area! He shot with his right foot when unguarded, and the ball hit the defender's foot and then deflected into the goal!

Luton's substitution was immediate!

After taking the lead, Luton Town took it in their wives for the rest of the game.

In the 81st minute of the game, N'Golo Kante made a steal at the back and distributed the ball to the left side, Adam crossed to the back post, and Vardy pressed the opposing defender's header to help the team seal the win.

Preston launched the final onslaught in the final moments of the game, but Luton's defence was rock solid as they withstood the opposition in the final ten minutes.

In the end, Luton Town beat Preston North End 2-0 and advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup!
